The morning sun finally peeks out in the horizon to welcome those in Imperial. Yue Ling and Lu Tian finished their shower and both individuals went on to prepare themselves for their day.

At this time, Yue Ling wore a white bathrobe and she sat in front of the vanity in her closet room. She held a comb and brush through her already dried hair. However, her expression was one of blankness as she immersed herself in deep thoughts. Every so often she would heave a sigh to herself.

She was a little disappointed that during their shower together, Lu Tian didn"t do anything but shower with her. However, at the same time, she was thankful that he thought about her as to not harm her recovering body.

Thinking this, she chuckles under her breath and mumbles to herself.

"Yue Ling ah Yue Ling. Why are you so hopeless?"

She sets the comb down and stood up from the vanity. Walking over to where her wardrobe is, she decides to change into clothes. Right now is not the time to think about this matter.

Taking her robe off, she puts on a matching set of nude color bra and panties. Reaching for a simple white turtleneck long sleeve, she puts it on then layers over it with a khaki casual jumpsuit made of linen. Its leg design was wide and gave her better leg room to move around.

Walking back to the vanity, she grabs a hair tie and puts up her natural wavy hair into a high ponytail. She still needs to heat up the food before Lu Tian finishes getting ready for work.

Just as she took a step towards the door, she suddenly remembers something. Walking to one of the shelves in the room, she reaches for a small shopping bag.

A satisfying smile curls on her lip as she looks down at it, then walks out of the closet room in the direction of the kitchen.

However, when she nears the staircase to go down, the delicious aroma of the food she had prepared enters her nose.

Her brows slightly furrow, and she quickly goes down the stairs. She set the bag down on a table next to the stairs and strides in hurry to the kitchen.

Just as she had suspected, Lu Tian was already dressed and had heated up the food. The man even finished setting up the table for them.

She held the side of her head with her palms and exclaim like the scene in front of her was the most dreadful thing ever.

"Tian! What are you doing?"

Hearing her voice, Lu Tian place down a bowl on the table and looks up at her. His expression was as calm and collect as ever, but Yue Ling could see the smile in his eyes.

He stares at her then down to her choice of attire. For some reason, he couldn"t help but feel that she looked like a little girl. So cute and adorable that he wants to pinch her cheeks until it turns red.

He quickly brush the thought away and smiles to her with his teeth.

"I prepared breakfast. Come eat."

"…."

Both Yue Ling"s hand drop to her side and she was struck dumbfounded by his words. She was the one who cooked the food. How dare he make it seem like he had done all the cooking and she just lazed around in wait.

She rolled her eyes at him and walks over to the table to sit. Since he looks like he is enjoying this, she won"t spoil the moment for him.

Looking down at the food she had made, she sigh inside and wanted to pat herself on the back in proudness.

The breakfast consisted of the congee she almost burnt, steamed dumplings, pancakes with eggs and fried dough sticks to dip in soybean milk.

Just when Lu Tian sat down in the seat across from her, Yue Ling picks up her chopsticks and goes right into eating. However, her eyes subconsciously meets his and her hand reaching for a piece of pancake with eggs froze in midair.

Her eyes blink as he was looking at her like she had become some kind of pig who can eat anything.

She gestures a sarcastic smile at him and slowly moves her chopsticks to the plate with the fried dough sticks. She picks up a piece and place it on Lu Tian"s bowl.

"Eat this first. I made it as sweet as you and your love for me."

"…"

This time it was Lu Tian"s turn to be dumbfounded. Never in his entire thirty years of living has anyone called him sweet or even dare to. Maybe cute and adorable when he was a child, but never sweet.

However, thinking back to the way she said it, he wasn"t one bit bothered by it. As a matter of fact, he actually likes it. After all, she is the only person in the entire world he will ever show this "sweet" side of him.

He looks down at the fried dough stick then to the warm congee. Thinking of something, he picks up the wooden serving spoon and scoops a spoon full.

Carefully pouring it into his wife"s empty bowl, his words fell with a calm expression.

"Eat the congee first. I warmed it up for you like how you warm up my life."

"…"

Yue Ling"s cheeks flush red as it quickly travels to her ears. She opened and closed her mouth in wanting to say something, but like someone had pressed the mute b.u.t.ton, she was unable to say anything.

Her cheeks puff out like a chipmunk before she nods her head like an obedient child.

She set her chopsticks down and reach for her spoon. Her head lowers and she eats the congee that was not too hot and not too cold. It was at the perfect temperature to eat and warmed up her entire inside.

Even if she wanted to say something, she decided it was best to keep quiet.

Not because she didn"t want to talk to Lu Tian, but because she knows that anything she says, he will respond with something even cheesier and only make her blush even more.
